For the record, I copied this from https://wiki.debian.org/QEMU#Host_and_guests_on_same_network into my interfaces file:
auto br0 iface br0 inet dhcp pre-up ip tuntap add dev tap0 mode tap user root pre-up ip link set tap0 up bridge_ports all tap0 bridge_stp off bridge_maxwait 0 bridge_fd 0 post-down ip link set tap0 down post-down ip tuntap del dev tap0 mode tap (except the original had user <username>, did ifup br0, and it seems to work. The ifup seems to have brought down my network connections temporarily as it came up; e.g., an ssh session was lost. I used -net tap. Still not understanding what's going on...
